The Girl of Rhein
Orlaf's Love Statement

Hazel pointed to the oval mirror in the middle room. Orlaf immediately went up and looked at the mirror that was there.

"Oh my God! The chocolate is on my lips."

Hazel got out of her place and approached Orlaf. Hazel gives a tissue to Orlaf.

"You're nosy too." Orlaf cleaned the chocolate leftover in her mouth.

"I'm not nosy, indeed if at home when drinking warm chocolate my lips are also often like you, but it's what makes the chocolate taste feels."

"So, why did you tell me to clean it?"

Hazel looks like a thinking person. "Yes too, yeah." Hazel laughed. "Orlaf, the rest of the chocolate is still there." Hazel cleaned the remaining brown on the edge of Orlaf's lips.

Orlaf who saw so close to Hazel's face looked bewitched by Hazel's sweet and innocent face.

"Hazel, you're beautiful when you really look so close."

Hazel immediately stopped her hand that was cleaning Orlaf's lips. "What are you talking about, Orlaf?"

"I'm talking reality, Hazel. You are beautiful and I love you and all the simplicity you have."

Hazel recalls hearing what Orlaf said. "Orlaf, you're sleepy, aren't you?"

Orlaf smiles. "Of course I'm not sleepy, I seriously say. Hazel, I'm the one who likes things to the point. No. Suk rambling."

Hazel fell silent and she felt that Orlaf was not joking. "You don't say you like me because I know you already have a boyfriend on campus."

"Yes. Isn't Belinda your boyfriend? Just in class she came up to me and got angry with me. He would even make a fuss with Sasa, but my lecturer came on time and they ended up not being so noisy.

"So Belinda went to class? When did he come?"

"She just came, I've already said that I'm your distant brother, but it doesn't seem like he likes me."

Orlaf could not believe that Belinda's behavior was getting out of control. "I used to have a relationship with him, but it did not last long because it turned out Belinda was very selfish and arrogant. I really didn't expect him to be like that. Though I was happy when she was very attentive to me."

"Is your problem not to be spoken of? And you're talking about her nature that you don't like."

"Have been, but his nature has become. He became very possessive and sensitive. Even he almost choked the neck of the girl who gave me chocolate."

"Huh? It's not just love, it's crazy love."

"Eat it, rather than something worse, I'll just decide for him."

"Yes too. However, it seems like he hasn't changed. The proof of that was meeting me straight away and she was upset with me, as if I was the girl who was going to be your lover and compete with her."

Hazel's hand was held by Orlaf and she invited Hazel to sit back to the place where they had studied."

"Hazel, I hope that if Belinda sees you, you don't shut up. You have to tell me, and I ask that if he calls you to talk to you, you better not care. I regret sometimes, why did I ever like that girl?"

"You don't say that because we don't know where and with whom we fell in love." Hazel once again remembered Rhine.
